Wanna play a game?

I haven't investigated as to whether the names have been given to ships on other lines already, but I like Meridian and Horizon.

 

Both used before on ships no longer in the fleet. I kind of like the idea of recycling old names. I think other lines have been doing that.

How about Excelsior and Excalibur, both names suggested by my DH.

[SantaFeFan]

It seems like most of the Celebrity ship names have been about time or space.

 

Combing the space concept along with their trend towards more and more extra cost items to spend money on board perhaps they could call one of the new ships the "black hole"

 

And the other the "Worm Hole"?

[Wayneair]

If the first ship in the Millennium Class was the Millennium and the first ship in the Solstice Class was the Solstice, maybe Project Edge will become the new Edge Class.

 

That will make for some fun conversations in port when you tell someone "I'm on the Edge..."

 

I agree with edge. Also you can say the ship is cutting edge.

 

Both used before on ships no longer in the fleet. I kind of like the idea of recycling old names. I think other lines have been doing that.

 

Holland America does this and like the idea. Bring back Horizon or Galaxy. Also all ships in this class will have the older ship names. Was there a ship name Meridian or was that RCL?

Great names...

 

But honestly they both begin with "E" and there is enough confusion already between Equinox & Eclipse as it is.

 

Cheers!

Ok, if Meridian and Horizon can't be reused, how about Pinnacle or Apex. I sort of like Pinnacle shortened to the Pinnie.

Maybe we should just name them Tranquil and Placid. Ah, too boring, you say.

 

OK, then, how about nomenclature near and dear to Celebrity cruisers: Upscale and Unlimited (drinks, fun, whatever). This could be the new "U" class. Think about the marketing possibilities....

 

1) The U-class, where it's all about U....

 

2) U will love the new Celebrity ships where U are always Number One....

 

3) U are the center of our universe. (Hey, if this works, the third ship in the series could be the "Universe.")

 

The possibilities are endless. Celebrity, are you listening????

Nautilus, Calypso, Atlantis, Enterprise, Mazu, Sedna, Neptune, Brizo, Athena.

 

In terms of edge related words - The Fringe, The Shore, The Point, The Flange and The Crust

 

On a lighter note - the Davy Jones, kardashian, Oprah, the Black Pearl, Pepsi Max, Queen Camilla I (maybe Cunard already have bagged this) , Modern Luxury (to finally end the debate on whether Celebrity is or is not..), Edge for the first, Bono for the second

 

Personally don't like Serenity, would really put me off and immediately thoughts of retirement homes and chapels of rest come to mind... Call the first one Serenity and you might want to call the second Restful Meadows.

Another great astronomy term, with its source in Ancient Greek

(and people complain that silhouette and millennium are hard to spell)

Meridian was Celebrity's first ship, or at least the first one sailing under the Celebrity name. That's something I learned on this forum. A quick Google search even found a fan page for the ship: http://ssmeridian.com/

Athena and Aphrodite

 

Aegean and Adriatic

 

Iliad and Odyssey

Celebrity Edge

 

Celebrity Dimension

 

Celebrity Orbit

 

Celebrity Universe

 

Celebrity Axis

[kelmac]

Celebrity Quasar "emitting exceptional amounts of energy"

 

Celebrity Nebula "bright area in the night sky"

[jveevers]

Given Celebrity have called this "project edge", I would say the Ship names are obvious.

Celebrity Bono. And

Celebrity Edge

Known as U2 class.

[retired067]

Name them what you will, as long as the name can't be shortened, example Connie, Sillie, Millie.

[Stem to Stern]

Celebrity Stratos

[Germancruiser]

How about Celebrity Carnival- since they seem to go - sail- in that direction..! Just kidding of course!

[kikki21]

If they are going for something in keeping with the celestial theme - then I'd go for Aurora and Corona :)

I vote for Hither and Yon! :D

 

 

In all seriousness, how about Celestine (means "heavenly") and Oriana (means "rising sun")?

Excellsior

 

Only if Stan Lee is the captain of it.

 

:D

 

 

Let's see who gets it...... :cool:

After all the troubles with azipod propulsion systems, the new ships should have (and flaunt) different technology. So how about:

Heart of Gold [using the Improbability Drive]

and

TARDIS

These ships would also be extremely popular for SciFi charter groups!
